Chapter 162: Primordial Life and Lotus (II)
The yard was deep and serene. A meandering path stretched through flowers and trees, with its end fading in the gra.s.s. As they entered the yard, Xuan Lingzi paused for a second, yet Luo Jianqing didn’t notice that. His attention was drawn by a master in blue standing at the end of the path.
That female cultivator looked dignified and beautiful. She wore a pale bluish-white dress with a delicate jade lantern in her hand. Standing among flowers, she was by no means garish, but more elegant and reserved as a fairy.
Luo Jianqing suddenly recalled something: It was said that the Supreme Master of Fei Hua Sect seemed…
It was a huge blow to Luo Jianqing. His mouth twitched and he was desperate to take his master away from here.
However, as the chief disciple of Tai Hua Mountain, Luo Jianqing had to show good manners, even if he had secretly examined that lady for many times. He and Xuan Lingzi approached her, and Xuan Lingzi said, “Fellow Cultivator Feng Si.”
Lady Feng Si also nodded, “Fellow Cultivator Xuan Lingzi.”
Then, Feng Si and Xuan Lingzi sat on the stone bench in the yard. Across a round stone table, they began to discuss how to deal with demons after the contract was torn up. Both demonstrated delicate manners. They composed themselves with great courtesy and dignity.
Luo Jianqing sat beside Xuan Lingzi and his eyes fell on Lady Feng Si from time to time.
To be honest, Lady Feng Si had reached the late stage of Da Sheng Period, and she had been cultivating for… over 1900 years.
According to the seniority of ordinary people, she was at the same age with the grand-grand-grand-grand-grandmother of Xuan Lingzi. But in the cultivation world, Lady Feng Xian was one of few who had the potential to reach Deity Transformation Period, so her status was paralleled to Xuan Lingzi.
Before Luo Jianqing met her, he had thought that the Supreme Master might be as peremptory as his junior fellow sister. After all, for a woman who dared to publicly express her love to Xuan Lingzi and her hope to be his couple cultivation partner, everyone might expect that she was an extrovert person.
Yet the truth was far from that.
In front of Xuan Lingzi, Lady Feng Si was as cold as a stranger!
When she was about to leave, Luo Jianqing found something strange. Her good-looking face turned upset. She asked in a low voice, “Fellow Cultivator Xuan Lingzi, will you come back to Fei Hua Sect?”
Xuan Lingzi lowered his eyes, “I will, if it’s necessary.”
You would only come when it was necessary.
A trace of disappointment flashed through her eyes. She turned around and walked away.
As soon as she left, the temperature in the yard suddenly dropped several degrees. Xuan Lingzi turned to his disciple and saw his cold face. Luo Jianqing asked in a weird tone, “I thought Miss Feng Si liked you, but she didn’t show that feeling in front of you.”
That was a sort of normal question, but his tone… had a sense of jealousy.
Luo Jianqing rarely got jealous, so Xuan Lingzi fixed his clear and tender eyes on his jealous disciple and beamed. After a long gaze, Xuan Lingzi didn’t say anything, which made Luo Jianqing angrier.
He knew what he said was not true. Although Lady Feng Si didn’t express her love directly, she had allowed a junior to sit beside Xuan Lingzi and didn’t mind him glancing at her secretly now and then. This privilege had demonstrated her special feeling to Xuan Lingzi.
If Luo Jianqing had not been the disciple of Xuan Lingzi, she would have taught him a lesson when Luo Jianqing stole the first glance at her.
She just expressed her love in a veiled and subtle manner.
However, Luo Jianqing could feel that she was a powerful and beautiful cultivator. Moreover, she was the Supreme Master of Fei Hua Sect. If it really worked between her and Xuan Lingzi, they would be the perfect couple int this world and won the best wishes from everyone.
With that in mind, Luo Jianqing was even more distressed. He couldn’t go public with his relationship with Xuan Lingzi, but Lady Feng Si could express her love freely and if everything went well, they could be a blessed couple. The gap was so wide.
Luo Jianqing tried hard to restrain his bitterness and made a cup of tea for Xuan Lingzi. As he served the tea, Xuan Lingzi pulled his hand. Xuan Lingzi entwined his long fingers with Luo Jianqing’s and looked up at him, “There is nothing between her and me, don’t worry.”
Luo Jianqing was baffled and then said in a strange tone, “Of course, nothing.”
Then, he got rid of Xuan Lingzi’s hand and continued to serve the tea.
Seeing that, Xuan Lingzi was also baffled. Although he had been fond of his disciple for many years, he had never experienced romantic relationship for almost 400 years. Therefore, he knew there was something wrong with Luo Jianqing, but he didn’t know what to do.
As Luo Jianqing was jealous, Xuan Lingzi at first could stand it and even felt his disciple lovely, yet as time pa.s.sed, Xuan Lingzi felt uncomfortable and anxious, starting to shuffle around .
After a long thought, Xuan Lingzi grabbed Luo Jianqing’s hand as he sat down and said seriously, “I will not be mad at your little fellow sister and your ‘friend forever’. And I’m also OK with all the cultivators that love you. So please don’t mind Lady Feng Si.” His tone was a little bit haste-he was really worried.
Hearing that, Luo Jianqing twitched his mouth, “Put my little fellow sister aside, what does Mo Qiu have anything to do with it?!”
Xuan Lingzi felt upset and said in a low voice, “…Anyway, I will not be mad at you, so please don’t be mad at me.”
Those words immediately dispelled Luo Jianqing’s jealousy. He never expected that his master would be so worried. He liked to see Xuan Lingzi get jealous for him, as that was a rare scene where Xuan Lingzi would completely lose his coldness and elegance.
However, Xuan Lingzi didn’t like that. Luo Jianqing had just been jealousy for a while and Xuan Lingzi was driven so worried. That was…
“Well”, after a deep sigh, Luo Jianqing drew a ward.
Xuan Lingzi immediately flickered his sleeve and enhanced it.
No one could see what happened inside the ward. Luo Jianqing softly broke free from Xuan Lingzi’s hand which was holding his tight. That made Xuan Lingzi surprised and somewhat panicked. But Luo Jianqing suddenly moved forward and give him a gentle peck.
Luo Jianqing smiled, “Master, don’t you want to see me jealous for a while?”
In bafflement, Xuan Lingzi heard the hoa.r.s.e and low voice of Luo Jianqing, “We… haven’t conducted couple cultivation for a long time.”
What happened next was swift.
In the wide, open yard, they tenderly kissed each other, showing their full love. Luo Jianqing’s hands fondled into Xuan Lingzi’s clothes. Xuan Lingzi froze for a second and took Luo Jianqing back to room hurriedly.
Luo Jianqing looked at him with atonement. Xuan Lingzi frowned and said, “We… we can’t do it in public.”
Luo Jianqing couldn’t help laughing out. He ripped Xuan Lingzi’s clothes and pressed him down, giving him a deep kiss. The sound of their entwining tongues were seductive and alluring. They stripped off all the clothes and soon sweet and low moans rose gradually.
